There is evidence that insured went to the roof of the apartment bouse beside wMch he was found dead for the purpose of fixing the clothesline, and that he was killed by a fall from the coping wMle in such attempt, and of other facts from wMch an inference might be drawn that his fall was the result of accident and not design.
